EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from 17th century London, showcasing water carriers fetching water from a public fountain in a bustling street. The image depicts a diverse group of individuals, some of whom are servants collecting water for their households, while others are professionals who will sell it door to door. In this historical snapshot, we see the vital role that these water carriers played in ensuring access to clean and safe drinking water for the community. They were essential figures in maintaining the public health and well-being of Londoners during a time when reliable sources of clean water were scarce. The image provides a glimpse into the daily lives of these hardworking individuals as they navigate through the crowded streets with their heavy loads of precious water. It serves as a reminder of the challenges faced by people in centuries past and highlights the importance of basic necessities such as clean drinking water. Through this photo print, we are transported back in time to witness an important aspect of London's history - one that sheds light on the resilience and resourcefulness of those who worked tirelessly to provide for their communities.
